New Game, New Rules

Can’t see the wood for the trees
Somebody please crack a window for me
It’s so stuffy I can hardly breathe
Let the light in
Smell that sweet smell of oxygen
From the outside in
I dip my toes in
Fresh soil, fresh mud
Let me drink like a fish
From this flash flood
Taste fresh blood
Hear new sounds, new chords
Throw me like a rag doll off the high-board
Into the gene-pool
Pour fire on my fuel
It's a new game, new rules

I flip a coin I roll the dice
I’ll leave Lady Luck to choose
I got nothing to lose
Black or red
Tails or heads
Yeah Fate can be my muse
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose
So I risk it all
New game new rules

Now we got holes in our clothes
My best friends got a hole in her nose
And the walls are closing in on me
In the quicksand
I feel it rising up to my neck
And I’m sinking like a shipwreck
Black hole
Trying to suck out my soul
While we all put our keys in the fruit-bowl
If there’s free love
There’s cheap hate too
It's all he said she said
And who screwed who
I need a minute
Take me back to school
It's a new game, new rules

I flip a coin I roll the dice
I’ll leave Lady Luck to choose
I got nothing to lose
Black or red
Tails or heads
Yeah Fate can be my muse
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose
So I risk it all
New game new rules
